David Samson, the loquacious and occasionally polarizing president of the Marlins for the past 15 years, will be looking for a new job when new owners take over the franchise.
A source said prospective owners Bruce Sherman and Derek Jeter have informed the league they do not intend to retain Samson if their bid to buy the franchise is approved. Their application is currently being reviewed by league owners and could be finalized before the end of the season in September.
Major League Baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred said Thursday that Sherman informed him Jeter would run day-to-day operations.
